The apple has mass. The Earth has mass. The apple falls down, and the Earth "falls" up. The Earth's motion is not measurable. The apple's motion is.

Why does an Apple fall toward the earth instead of the earth moving towards the Apple?

Because the mass f the Earth is way greater then the apple's mass. Though apple attracts earth it is so negligible that it is equal to 0


Does an apple fall faster on the moon or earth?

On the earth because the earth has stronger gravity than the moon


Is the force that makes an apple fall the same force that keeps the earth orbiting around the sun?

Yes - the same gravity that makes the apple fall from the tree - keeps the earth in orbit around the sun.


How did watching an apple fall from a tree lead newton to his hypothesis about gravity?

The falling apple helped Newton to understand the law of gravitational attraction between masses. The apple did not fall up, it did not fall sideways, it fell toward the earth. Newton could see a universal law in the fall of the local apple. The fall of the apple confirmed his ideas of why the earth orbited around the sun, etc.


Why does the apple fall on the earth and not vice versa?

Newton figured out that the force that made an apple fall from a tree was the same as the one keeping the Moon in orbit around Earth?

The legend is that Newton made the connection between the 2 questions when he watched the falling apple ........... Newton realized that the same unbalanced force affected the motions of the apple and the moon.It all has to do with gravity. The moon pulls the waves with the force pulling up or rising the waves, well the apple is brought to the ground with the force or the gravity on Earth.Legend says that Newton, said that the force that made the apple fall from the tree, makes earth fall from the sun and the moon fall from the earth. This force operates throughout the Universe and is a Universal Force..
